Also in accordance with articles of Mondros armistice agreement which was signed after The First World War, Ottoman State virtually became a thing of the past and again according to Secret treaties which had been signed in between the alliance government before, the way of the disintegration of the Ottoman State was opened. Mondros was not only a truce and olso a mojor blow which was dealt to Ottoman State with articles and applications which it contained and armistice terms were severe enough to mean for Ottoman Empire unconditionally to be taken a pieces. In particular article 7, It prepared a suitable environment for the strategic areas to be conguered by The Allience Governments. With the expression that All trops withdraw with article 16, It was aimed that Ottoman State remained absolutely defenseless. As a result of this, with the withdrawal of the Turkish army to Adana direction, Arab government was established name of Şerif Hüseyin in Mekka by Arab committee members who found empty square in the Ottoman's southern border and also The French sent troops to Iskenderun in the end of 1918.

On 1st September 1920, Provided that It protected its administrative autonomy , Iskenderun Bannerwhich was connected to Halep was again become detacted by seperating from Halep 9th October 1920. Altough a little bit, This state of confusion on the banner was solved with Ankara Treaty which was done on the 20th October 1921. With this treaty, while State of War in between Turkey and France ended, Hatay Region was left outside the borders of Turkey. But, Provided that Turkish culture was survived Banner was given the rights by granting special status the region with article 7 of Treaty.

With struggle which was done, it was waited that suitable conditions occured for the fact that the ıssue of Hatay was solved. Also with Lausanne Treaty which was signed on 24th July 1923, it was the same accepted that the whole articles which depended on the Turkey-Syria border which was drawn with Ankara Treaty and the Ankara Treaty were valid. With hearding of the fact that Syria and Lebanon would be given independency by France, the bid that Banner was independent was put forward by Republic of Turkey and so the struggle for independence started for Hatay as well. Thereupon, Hatay case was properly focused with the foreign policy which was followed to Hatay to join Turkey and activities which were done inside and was kept going with sure steps to Hatay again to join Turkey.
